I was thinking about the great hospitals, and wondering if they will ever think of picking up and going outside the city limits. Hopkins the hospital, or the college? (I think you mean hospital, as the college is just above 39th.) Hopkins’ area is still not fantastic. Neither is UM’s. I wouldn’t blame them all for picking up and moving to the county, before they get dragged down by the ghettoes.

This neighborhood is just SW of the college. I wouldn’t go there at night but during the day, no problem. Of course, after hearing this story, I would avoid times of day when school is letting out. :-)

Hopkins and the UM Universities and medical complexes are practically the only two large employers left in the city. They keep expanding with government money, as slum after slum is leveled. Without them, and a brokerage house or two with offices downtown, I don’t know who would be working in the city.
